We have a H.I.S.S. coming...what else would Joe be tooling around in? It could host at least 4 figures (if foot pegs work). A Dragonfly at 1/12 scale seems absurdly huge and non practical given the product offerings (hardly any ...yeah ok, Flight Pod is the horizon I think) thus far.

Given how much firepower they loaded the HISS with and how much hype they are putting into these teases, I can’t see how anyone wouldn’t feel insulted if the big reveal is the VAMP or the AWE…two largely open-air vehicles with modest weaponry up against a tank.
I wouldn’t necessarily dislike those releases on their own, but they feel more like potential retail options than some sort of feared firepower-heavy premium offering that the Joes would secretly devise to overcome the HISS. “We’ve discovered their super secret plans to develop a jeep!” |

A Dragonfly has significant firepower and can "defend against a HISS on all fronts"?
What's the HISS gonna do to counteract it - FLY? Also doesn't exactly have significant firepower. One minigun, one cannon, and four missiles doesn't really scream significantly armed. |

For Shipwreck, my dad was in the Navy from 1977 to 2004, and he was a Fire Controlman and wore that uniform on the ship. I saw my dad in that outfit more than any other until he made Chief, so I have a lot of nostalgia for that look and am excited about getting it. Would I like a SEAL version, sure, but I can't wait for this one.

Some of us want it to be an item we actually want. So we continue to hope it's not even when that evidence suggests otherwise.

The Bell Super Cobra is a tank destroyer. Here is what it did in a 100 hour campaign in the gulf war. During the Gulf War, 78 Marine SuperCobras were deployed, flying a total of 1,273 sorties in Iraq.[24] While no combat losses were reportedly incurred, three AH-1s were lost to accidents either during and after the combat operations. The AH-1W units were credited with destroying 97 tanks, 104 armored personnel carriers and vehicles, and two anti-aircraft artillery sites during the 100-hour ground campaign.

I don't know how to comment here without offending anyone, but it's something I've always pondered about this franchise and maybe it's paramount to the years of hop-scotch in the line. Are G.I. Joe characters military super-heroes in a fantasy or are they being used as people to reenact real world military scenarios revered by veterans? NO OFFENSE to the military or veterans what so ever!!! They have my unduly respect. I too have vets in the family, and have known many active soldiers. I love watching military shows and films. G.I. Joe has also inspired many to even become soldiers, so I get it. They may probably be offended and think a lot of what Hasbro does is blasphemy or comedy with G.I. Joe. But, G.I. Joe to me and I'm sure many others agree, has been a childhood franchise like Voltron, MASK, Robotech/Macross, etc and the like. To reinvent this differently is a completely different animal. Nothing wrong modern or a retakes on the classics, but it would be different. Not to say that I'd like the line to be kiddy, but just classic and detailed. Sorry guys, this is totally beating a long dead horse. Let the chips fall where they may and enjoy the fucking toys. |
